(Don’t know how to update Zoom? Here’s how to download the newest Zoom changes.)
Zoom has completely redesigned their virtual whiteboard experience to boost asynchronous collaboration.
Zoom meeting attendees can collaborate by adding, dragging, and dropping images, sticky notes, messages, and more and use shapes and connectors for diagramming purposes. You can easily share online whiteboards with other Zoom users using the share sheet AND access your whiteboards anytime, during or outside a meeting – they are saved automatically!
Zoom’s new whiteboard functionality is available on your Zoom client for desktop and web browser.
To get started with Zoom Whiteboard, you’ll need Zoom version 5.10.3 or later. Here’s how you can create, access, and share your digital whiteboards:
- Sign into your Zoom account using the Zoom client on your device or web browser.
- Select the Whiteboards tab, and choose New Whiteboard to start a whiteboard.
- To view your whiteboards, select the ‘My Whiteboards’ tab. You can also select ‘Shared with Me’ to view whiteboards that have been shared with you.
- To share a digital whiteboard you’ve created, open the whiteboard you wish to share, select the Share button, and type the contact or email you wish to share the board with.
*Pro tip: Be sure to visit Zoom’s support page to learn more about Zoom Whiteboard and its features!
